About the role
The company offers full relocation support, including immigration assistance. Tasks: The Senior FDIR-FSW Engineer will perform and participate in the following tasks and activities, depending on the background and experience of the candidate. · Define the fault detection actions of the platform at the system and subsystem levels. · Define and document how the platform will interfact with the payload for satellite level FDIR. · Work with the operations team to define the contingency scenarios involving FDIR. · Work with customers to use their input for FDIR strategy to refine MDA’s FDIR strategy ensuing that the strategies are compatible. · Work with the FSW team to determine the FDIR test plan on the FlatSat and DSS. · Work with the AI&T team to determine what FDIR needs to be tested at the spacecraft level. · Work with system, subsystems, payload, and units teams to review FMECAs and provide feedback on the detection, isolation, and recovery of failures modes. · Provide input to the Operations team for Operations Procedures, Operations Manuals, and Satellite test procedures to ensure that the Operations documents and FDIR strategy are aligned. · Review ICDs to provide inputs to the satellite DB team for parameters and monitors. · Review payload, platform, and subsystem design; including block diagrams, ICDs, ConOps, and requirement to ensure that the design is compliant with FDIR requirements. · Review Operations Procedures to ensure that they algin with the FDIR strategy. · Review FDIR test artifacts to determine if the tests are successful and if they are not, work with the team to troubleshoot how to resolve non compliances. · Verification & Validation Matrices for platform and payload FDIR requirements. · Support the payload team in their definition of payload FDIR and how it impacts the satellite level FDIR. · Support the operations team as needed for In-Orbit Test (IOT), anomaly resolution + FDIR. · Support the ICD development activities both HW and SW/DB Must haves · Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, computer science or in a relevant field · At least 10 years of relevant practical experience – Can be supplemented with higher degrees relevant to Engineering. · Previous experience with LEO/MEO satellite systems. · Strong cross-functional team collaboration. · Experience with analysis of satellite systems and subsystems. · Familiarity and/or experience with FMECAs and/or Fault Tree Analysis. · An understanding of how failures can propagate through a system. · Ability to decompose system level failures down to the unit level and back up from the unit to the system level. · Knowledge of satellite FSW and how monitors work for FDIR. · Knowledge of how to test HW and SW for FDIR. Complementary skills/knowledge · Previous experience in Constellation FDIR · Creation of Fault Trees and FMECAs · Experience with reliability analysis · Working knowledge of PUS services · Experience with mentoring junior engineers · Experience with FDIR on embedded systems · Experience with payload FDIR. · Knowledge of MS Excel, for the purposes of engineering analyses · Knowledge of requirements Management tools such as DOORS/Windchill/Jama · Demonstrated capability to efficiently work with little to no supervision · Strong written and verbal communications skills in English, knowledge of French will be considered favorably
